2019 Chevrolet Traverse

2019 Chevrolet Traverse AWD V6, 3-Row, Cajun Red Tintcoat, Loaded with Tech and Safety Features

Why This Car Is Special

The 2019 Chevrolet Traverse represents the second generation of the nameplate, which debuted for 2018 after a complete ground-up redesign. Chevrolet stretched the wheelbase significantly compared to the first-generation model, which ran from 2009 through 2017, resulting in meaningfully more interior room across all three rows. The second-gen Traverse also shed considerable weight versus its predecessor Chevy engineers reduced curb weight by roughly 350 pounds compared to the outgoing model a number that shows up in real-world fuel economy and how the vehicle responds on the road.

This particular 2019 Chevrolet Traverse is finished in Cajun Red Tintcoat, a rich deep red with multi-coat depth that Chevrolet offered as a premium color option on the Traverse lineup. The interior is trimmed in Dark Ash Gray cloth, and the vehicle is equipped with all-wheel drive confirmed by the AWD badge on the tailgate and the presence of the rear drive unit visible in the undercarriage photos. The combination of AWD, the 3.6-liter V6, and the 9-speed automatic makes this a well-rounded example for families who need capability along with everyday usability.

A note for buyers who look closely at undercarriages: this Traverse was put on the lift for inspection, and the photos show the exhaust, drivetrain, and suspension in detail. The surface oxidation on the exhaust pipes is normal and expected on a vehicle of this age. The frame rails, floor pan, and suspension components appear intact and in normal condition for a Florida-climate vehicle.

Mechanical

The 2019 Chevrolet Traverse AWD is powered by GM's 3.6-liter LGX V6, a direct-injection engine with Variable Valve Timing on both intake and exhaust camshafts. Output is rated at 310 horsepower and 266 lb-ft of torque. This engine was a significant upgrade from the 3.6L used in the previous-generation Traverse, with the LGX featuring improved thermal management and reduced internal friction. The 9-speed automatic transmission is a GM-developed unit that replaced the 6-speed used in prior Traverse models. The additional ratios help keep the engine in a more efficient RPM range during highway driving while also providing quicker responses during acceleration.

The AWD system in the 2019 Traverse is an electronically controlled setup that operates primarily in front-wheel drive under normal conditions and distributes torque rearward when slip is detected or when the system anticipates the need. This is a fuel-efficient approach to AWD that doesn't sacrifice capability when road conditions change. The undercarriage photos show the rear differential and driveshaft clearly, confirming AWD hardware is present and accounted for on this example.

Disc brakes are fitted at all four corners. Suspension is an independent setup front and rear, with a
